About to go live with @alpenglow on the @crowdsupply stream. We'll be talking about Carrie's electronics work then we will discuss running hardware events, from workshops and meetups to conferences and hack sessions.

I'll be visiting #Edinburgh for the Open Hardware Summit in May 2025. I'm looking for some advice and local knowledge:

- local hacker/social justice/arts/hardware folks or groups
- ideas of spaces/factories/archives we could visit
- is there anyone I know from the scottish consulate or Edinburgh hack lab here on mastodon?
- I'd like to run a Hardware Happy Hour. Any tips for a large bar or a cool hacker adjacent space that would host us?

Thank you!

I've brought a big bag of open hardware launched on @crowdsupply with me to #HOPE2024, including the omakase version of Precursor by @bunnie and @Xobs, the Sensor Watch and a Open Book prototype by @joeycastillo, and the upcoming Anwaar by @chipperdoodles.

Come find me near the registration desk!

This August I am returning to Berlin for the first time since I left in December 2020. I'll be at CCC Camp plus I'll also be hosting a pre-camp Hardware Happy Hour Berlin with @davedarko at @xHain_hackspace on Fri 11th Aug.
